Signs and gestures, the occasional use of a lingua franca, and the development of a trade jargon based on the Indian languages were among the types of communication used in the early years of New Netherland. The trade jargon proved adequate until cultural change necessitated the appearance of interpreters who could speak the actual Indian tongues after about 1640
